closed Palmeiras 1-2 Chelsea

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,738]

All the fans there seem to be theirs

[Vesper 27,315]

we so miss Werner's diagonal runs opening up space for the others

[Magic Lamps 11,450]

They are extremely well drilled

rxactly like Corinthians 

[robsblubot 3,222]

Whoever scores first will win it… very tight affair.

Palmeiras strategy of letting Thiago Silva have the ball for 90% of the time and closely man marking everyone else is working because we’re playing so slowly. They’re forcing us to totally bypass our midfield and go long repeatedly to Lukaku, Mount, and Havertz.

They play dirty 

they actually, for a Brasilian team, are pretty clean

Flamengo tried everything against them in the Copa final and they did not respond in kind

Maybe it’s the ref he is super whistle heavy 

[Pizy 17,860]

So frustrating that none of Mount, Havertz, or Lukaku can consistently control the damn ball when it’s played into them. Ffs…

[Magic Lamps 11,450]

Such a Deep bus

 exactly what we struggle against 

[Magic Lamps 11,450]

This would be so much easier with our actual wing backs 

[different level 1,056]

I don't really rate this trophy, but since we went through the trouble of travelling to Abu Dhabi and have some EPL matches rescheduled we should make sure we win it.

[Pizy 17,860]

Long ball after long ball after long ball. Their approach play is better than ours…

Oh, and look, CHO out on an island in acres of space and can’t beat his man. AGAIN. That is a wingers dream and he fails almost every time recently.

This football is genuinely as bad as the 2016 Mourinho era
